Before you go to all that trouble make sure there’s an oil filter properly fitted and the metal sleeve is fitted in the front of the housing with an o-ring. Then put 4 litres of oil in it and see what happens. And make sure you undo the 10 mm oil gallery bolt on the side of the left hand cylinder to check oil flow.

I still have one or two lying around in the workshop you are welcome to one for your project

A while ago now, (years in fact) I was in contact with someone on here regarding oil pressure adaptors for a 3vd. Stupidly, I deleted all my messages, I cant remember why but there was a reason. Would it be you Leehenty? Apologies if it's you and I stopped replying to messages. I am still interested but I understand if the 3vd ones are all gone. I wish Yamaha at least installed an oil warning light, considering the catastrophic result with running low on oil on an engine that uses it as a finger up to Eco warriors.

Yes it was me I still have the donor switches. I can make you one on the lathe

[Pedro]

Ooo, yes please! I'm in Spain though so would posting it be a problem?
Also, I've forgotten what's needed. Do I need to get a special oil pressure switch, if so which type? Thanks

Ps. I'm impressed that you can just "make one on the lathe". Some of us mere mortals couldn't make a blunt nail on a lathe.
